Directions:
In medium skillet, heat the oil, and add the tortilla pieces.

Cook over medium heat, and stir often for about 5 minutes till lightly browned and crisp. Add the onion, jalapeno chili, and tomato stirring frequently for another 8 minutes, until the veggies go tender.

Stir the egg whites into the tortilla mixture. Sprinkle the salt.

Reduce the heat to medium and cook, shaking the pan vigorously once in a while to keep the frittata from sticking. Wait till the egg white mixture is almost set.

Transfer the low fat Mexican frittata back to skillet, bottom side up, and cook for 1 minute or till it goes firm. Then, remove from the heat, and cut the frittata in half.
